Girls Weekend

This past weekend Chloe and I went with Royce's mom to visit her side of the family. Chloe and I were excited to go along and we had a nice girls weekend. Friday Chloe and I drove to WaKeeney and got in with Sandy then we drove south of Dodge City to Englewood, KS. Saturday we met up with Shelly and Kat (Sandy's niece and her daughter) and ALL WAS WELL when Chloe got to be with Kat. We talk about Kat all the time because Chloe just adores her. We had a nice day shopping. The weather was great and I think everyone had a successful day at the stores.

Sunday we picked some fresh lilacs from Aunt Carol's lilac bushes and took them to the cemetery. Kirby and Katherine (Sandy's parents) passed away in 2008 and their birthdays were April 18 and April 23. So you can see in the pictures that Chloe helped arrange a nice jar of lilacs to take out there.

After visiting the cemetery we want to Shelly & Kevin's for a nice turkey dinner. It was great, Shelly! (I'm sure most of you can read about Shelly's turkey adventures by reading her blog that is linked to mine titled "It Bothers Me".) So after a filling turkey dinner and Chloe playing with Kat a little more it was time for us to hit the road back home. Chloe slept the entire way from Bucklin to WaKeeney, literally to Wayne & Sandy's house. She was exhausted. But it was a nice relaxing weekend and we had a lot of fun catching up with Sandy's family. Thanks for hosting us Carol & Shelly!

And for those of you who were worried about the boys, they had fun too. They went out to the farm with Royce's dad and Dan. And Royce even left Isaac with my mom on two different occasions so he could hit the golf course. So, no sympathy there:)
